If your current configuration already uses a 9U Library Expansion Module, disengage the Y-rails so the modules can be
safely unstacked.

From the front of the library, find the Y-rail release mechanism, which is located on the left side of the module.
Squeeze the handle of the Y-rail release mechanism, lift it, and release it so that it locks into place.
